Create new profiles

If the Scan For New Games list does not contain the game you want, LGS offers the ability to

create your own profile. Here’s how:

TIP: LGS can store profiles for any program executable (.exe) file. Use this to customize

commands assignments for productivity programs.

1. Open Logitech Gaming Software (LGS).

2. Navigate to the Home window for your mouse, keyboard or headset.

3. Select Customize buttons, Customize Function keys or Customize G-keys depending

on the device.

4. In the Profiles pane, click Create new profile ("+").

The New Profile window appears:

5. Type distinct names for your profile in the Name and Description boxes.

6. Click “+” and use the Windows Explorer window that appears to navigate to and open

your executable (.exe) file.

NOTE: You can assign multiple executable files to the same LGS profile.

7. Select the checkbox to Lock profile while game is running to prevent other profiles

from becoming active while your game or application is running.

8. If you prefer to use another profile’s lighting, command assignment or pointer settings as

a starting point, select the checkbox to Copy from an existing profile. Use the drop-

down menu to select a profile to copy settings from.

9. Click OK to save changes and add the new profile.

NOTE: A new profile for the game or application should appear in the Profiles pane.

Set racing wheel profiles to Persistent or Default using Logitech Gaming Software Logitech Gaming Software (LGS) 8.70 and later has two special profile states for racing wheel

profiles:

Default — used when no other active profile is detected

Persistent — overrides all app-specific profiles

NOTE: Not all Logitech racing wheels are compatible with LGS 8.70 (or later). Please refer to

your racing wheel’s product specifications for software compatibility information.

Set a Default profile LGS comes pre-installed with a Default profile. LGS uses the Default profile when no other

profile is currently running. To assign any profile of your choice to be the Default profile:

1. Make sure that the racing wheel is connected to your computer, and then launch LGS.

2. On the LGS Home screen, navigate to the device selector at the bottom of the LGS

window and click on the racing wheel’s device icon.

3. Navigate to the Steering Wheel or Pedals screen.

4. Navigate to the Profiles area at the top-right corner of the LGS window, and navigate to

the profile you wish to set as Default.

NOTE: For more information on navigating the list of available profiles in LGS, see

View racing wheel profiles using Logitech Gaming Software.

5. Right-click on the desired profile and click Set As Default from the pop-up menu that

appears.

The profile will now be set as the default. If you right-click on profile again from the list,

there should be a check mark next to Set As Default in the pop-up menu that appears.

This will be the active profile when no other profiles are running.

NOTE: To return to the pre-installed Default profile, follow all of the above steps,

making sure to select Default Profile in step #4.

Set a Persistent profile A Persistent profile is one you manually select to be used for all applications. It will override any

application-specific profile assignments. You can use this to troubleshoot poor profile-

performance or to simplify the configuration of your racing wheel. To set a profile as Persistent:

1. From the Profiles area at the top-right corner of the LGS window, navigate to the profile

you wish to set as persistent.

2. Right-click on the desired profile and click Set As Persistent from the pop-up menu that

appears.

The profile will now be set as the Persistent profile. If you right-click on Profile again

from the list, there should be a check mark next to Set As Persistent in the pop-up menu

that appears. This will now act as the active profile whenever an application is launched,

overriding any application-specific profile assignments.

NOTE: To disable the Persistent profile, follow the above steps, and click on Set As

Persistent in the pop-up menu that appears. The check mark should disappear and the

profile will no longer override other profiles.
